Patrick Beverley has officially played his first game as a Milwaukee Bucks player. His introduction to the fans was met with cheers. When he entered the game, a loud roar of appreciation welcomed him. When he shot his first basket, which happened to be a three-pointer, fans applauded. But something he did before entering the game brought out the humor for people watching. He took over the Bucks huddle with the clipboard in his hands. This hilarious move brought out laughs from the commentators.

Patrick Beverley has played 11 seasons in the NBA. Throughout his career, he has developed a reputation for being a pesky defender and an uber-competitive player. But he is also known for pushing his teammates. These are the reasons he was brought into the Bucks.

And he showed that when he was shouting at Brook Lopez about something that happened on the court. He proceeded to take the clipboard and the marker to show the exact play. That is when Doc Rivers stood up and took the board away from him.

Even the commentators chuckled and said that it looked like Beverley had been there for months. Beverley taking up the clipboard and talking to Lopez was a sign that he did not care about anything other than winning.
